SS Doubles OU 2021 Winter Seasonal :blobastonished:
★Mishiimono: YES
★Mishiimono: I GIT GAME'
★Mishiimono: PREPARE TO GET DESTROYED​

SPECIFIC RULES
  • This is a standard SS Doubles OU tournament
  • This tournament will be Double Elimination
  • Rounds will be Best of Three. You may switch teams in between battles of the same set.
  • Matches are to be played on Pokemon Showdown! (Main or SmogTours)
  • To encourage the development of the metagame, and so that everyone is on an even playing field, replays are required for all matches. If neither player posts replays of the match, both players will suffer an automatic game loss. (If you were in losers' when you played, you are both out. If you were in winners', the winner is in losers' and the loser is out.)
  • Activity calls will be made by me, potentially with neutral assistance from a Doubles OU Forum Moderator. Coin flips will be done publicly on PS!
  • In the event that something is added to or removed from the Doubles OU metagame in the middle of a round, that change will be in effect starting the next round.
  • Do not cheat. Cheating will result in a disqualification. Additional punishments may be applied as necessary. Cheating includes, but is not limited to:
    • Signing up with more than one account
    • Ghosting or being ghosted by another player (e.g. while playing a set, asking for advice about what team to bring or what plays to make)
    • Manipulating match outcomes (e.g. throwing a match in exchange for Smogon likes)
  • Do not harass or insult your opponents. I reserve the right to disqualify anyone breaking this rule. Additional punishments may be applied as necessary.
Standard Rules and Clauses

    • A Pokémon may not carry Recycle and hold a Leppa Berry in conjunction with Heal Pulse and Milk Drink, Moonlight, Morning Sun, Recover, Roost, Slack Off, Soft-Boiled, or Wish.

A reminder that REPLAYS ARE REQUIRED FOR ALL MATCHES

Week 3 Roundup (Usage Stats and Highlight Matches Replays)

Highlight Matches:
YoBuddy vs. Nido-Rus -- I didn't want to reuse people but this match was too good to pass up! YoBuddy finished 6th on last year's Power Rankings with very strong showings in both Winter and Fall Seasonals. Nido-Rus finished with the second best record in DWCoP at 4-0 and was drafted in Smogon Snake Draft IV as part of the Terminus Taipans. YoBuddy and Nido-Rus helped lead APAC to finals in Doubles World Cup, so it will be interesting to see how they face off after teaming together!
G1 / G2

SMB vs. shrop -- Not the matchup you would expect in Round 4, and in the loser's bracket at all! SMB is one of the best DOU players of all time, with a resume including 2 seasonal wins, 4 DLT wins, and leading Team Mediterranean to a win this year's DWCoP. shrop is coming off a Doubles Invitational finals appearance and finished 12th in last year's power rankings with an extremely strong Fall seasonal showing. These are some of the best DOUers at the moment and is sure to be an incredible series.
G1 / G2 / G3

[GUEST COMMENTARY BY Z STRATS] Memoric vs. Maki -- In the battle of the Ms, the #1 up and coming DOU player Maki faces the People's Champ himself. The two players are looking to reinvent the Doubles metagame itself by facing off with Monotype teams in a series that is sure to be a must watch.
G1 / G2
